Khandvi is a soft, rolled Gujarati snack made from besan and yoghurt. Thin, delicate, and mildly tangy, it melts in the mouth. Its aromatic mustard-sesame tempering elevates its flavour, making it perfect for snacks or tea-time.

Ingredients

1 cup gram flour (besan) ½ cup yoghurt 2 cups water ¼ tsp turmeric ¾ tsp salt 1 tsp green chilli paste 2 tbsp oil Tempering: 1 tbsp oil 1 tsp mustard seeds 1 tsp sesame seeds 8-10 curry leaves

Step 1

Blend besan, yoghurt, water, turmeric, chilli, and salt into a smooth, thin batter.

Step 2

Cook on medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture is thick and glossy.

Step 3

Spread the hot mixture thinly on greased plates or a clean surface.

Step 4

Once set, slice into long strips and roll them gently.

Step 5

Heat oil, add mustard, sesame seeds, and curry leaves, then pour the tempering over the rolls.
